Once I was deep in prayer, And I suddenly had a desire to know what it was like to be God and to know everything that was going on in the universe.
And for a moment, it felt like I did. Granted it seems an impossible number of individual things to know, but it was also just one thing to know. It was like a juggler juggling 1,000,000 balls, it wasn’t a matter of keeping track of the destiny of each individual ball, each ball was in motion set by the juggler, their path in life was by the will and power of the juggler who sent them. All the juggler had to keep in mind was setting into motion the balls coming to his hand, the paths of the ball’s he sent in motion, were set.
Or, you could say the will of God is like a stream of water so clear you can’t even see the water... you only way you can tell that the water’s there, is by the bubbles in it...and the bubbles are our reality, as we know it. But the reality we know, is actually nothing but empty air, carried along...the illusion of change, motion, time, energy we try to explain with physical laws, is nothing but a list of incidents relating to the actual motive force of Gods will.
Or, so it seemed that the time. It was only for a moment.
I love that vision, but I attribute that knowingness to the individual - not a supreme creator. 'Reality', space, matter, energy, time --- all of it created by the collective agreements of we spirits who drive these temporary bodies.
Thank you for the profound thoughts.
One certainly cannot blame God for dropping any of the balls. Guess we can only blame ourselves. There is a whole solar system with more energy than mankind could ever use, and that energy is ignored because the technology does not currently exist to mine our solar system. Did God say, here is what is there, I gave you the technology to discover what I created? Go mine it, use it, relish it, be fruitful and multiply, and yet here we go and forget it? Wonder if this is part of our past, of which we have no knowledge? Has mankind been here before?
